Pros

- Senior leadership truly cares about company's future - Company investing in talent that can take the company to the future - Very transparent to all employees - Very competitive compensation - Company is growing like crazy! - Company has fun as one of its core values - Feel like long timers are slightly more receptive to new ideas now - Equality and respect is emphasized as part of company values - Parental leave for new parents (including adoptions) is very generous!

Cons

- While company is investing in the future, there's still a little bit of resistance to change - Not as much perks as the big companies, but definitely more than smaller companies - There's a lot of new people from very ranging experience and expertise; leading to new "processes" that may slow down the company if not checked - Employees are surprisingly not as familiar with company as I expected

Pros

Great compensation and time off. No micromanagement. Great product that's known for its strength and solid brand

Cons

Lack of definitive direction with Cisco and old and outdated game plan. Competitors have caught up and sometimes surpassed Splunk leaving Splunkers looking for a new strategy; very small territories, incompetent hires in some management roles
